Finally alerted into action by repeatedly reading about drifting carbon resistor values, i checked a bunch of them. Here are some egregious outliers i found. All are unused, new condition:

color bands 15k actual value 22k

"                     100   "                   35

"                      220  "                   1.3k

Am i going to keep any NOS plain carbon resistors ? What do you think !!
